What bothered me most is the teacher response. Teacher Liu doesn’t even track attendance until lunch, and then he acts shocked? And Wenrou just accepts Han Cheng’s testimony without asking Xi Yang? There’s no investigation. It’s lazy writing to keep the conflict simple.
I'm curious about the master who told Wen Baixiang to abandon his daughter. And the fact that after Wen Li left, his career soared – that's such a cruel irony. Now he only brings her back when the "dangerous period" has passed. He's super cautious, even sending his wife first. This shows he's more concerned about his own luck than his daughter. What a jerk. I hope Wen Li makes his life miserable.
The action sequence where he retreats from the weasel demon was visceral—"fear coursed through his body, and Lu Jue's limbs trembled uncontrollably." That's good animal behavior. Cats do that freeze-and-tremble thing. And then he forces himself to stay because he thinks of the girl. That's a character moment: he's not just self-preserving, he's responsible. He doesn't want his actions to cause harm. That's a solid foundation for a hero, even a feline one.
